If you had the option to use generic kernel when doing a reinstall the speakup modules are in that kernel. How you install missing modules is possible if on your disk in source code but you'll have to build them correctly first. If you had mlocate package installed and had done updatedb first then you could do locate speakup_soft and find if you have that module in source code on your disk. Alternatively ubuntu in its customizations could have blacklisted all of the speakup modules. They would be on the disk and would have first to be removed from the blacklist then built and then installed. It's a complicated process, just the way ubuntu wants it.
